Summary:
The Menifee Union school district in California serves 15 schools, including 12 elementary schools and 3 middle schools. The district showcases a mix of high-performing and underperforming schools, with significant disparities in student achievement across the region.
Several schools stand out as top performers, including Taawila Elementary, which ranks in the top 25% of California elementary schools and boasts strong test scores, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Herk Bouris Elementary and Harvest Hill S.T.E.A.M. Academy also demonstrate impressive performance, with the latter serving grades K-8 and ranking in the top 30% of California elementary schools.
However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the highest and lowest-performing schools, particularly in Mathematics. Chronic absenteeism rates vary widely, from a low of 16.1% at Harvest Hill S.T.E.A.M. Academy to a high of 30.2% at Freedom Crest Elementary. Additionally, the district's online school, Menifee Virtual, appears to be underperforming compared to the traditional brick-and-mortar schools, particularly in Mathematics. These findings suggest the need for the district to identify and address the factors contributing to these disparities, as well as to explore strategies for improving attendance and virtual education outcomes.
